Soun didn’t reject Makinde’s N100 million offer to renovate Ogbomoso palace – Official


The Soun of Ogbomoso Oba Jimoh Oyewumi has denied the content of a letter purportedly authorised by him, rejecting the N100million financial contribution of the Governor Seyi Makinde’s government for the planned renovation of his palace vandalised by hoodlums during the #EndSARS protest on October 10.


Oba Oyewunmi disowned the said letter while speaking with the Chief Press Secretary to Governor Seyi Makinde, Mr Taiwo Adisa, saying he did not authorise the said letter in circulation. 
“If your boss sees any such letter, he should ignore it, because I didn’t ask anyone to write such a letter,” he said 
“I’ve spoken to His Royal Majesty, the Soun of Ogbomoso, Oba Oyewumi Ajagungbade III, who totally denounced the said letter and its contents”. 


“The Soun said that he never authorised anyone to issue a letter on his behalf and that if any such letter surfaces, some persons must have forged his signature.The Soun said he wholeheartedly welcomes the intervention of Governor Seyi Makinde in the plan to fix the palace and all the damaged items.”
